Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The convertible top has become increasingly slower when putting it up and down. There are signs on the top of the car where it latches of something grinding. Took to dealer and was advised that the top operated at normal speed when compared to a similar model. Currently operation is exceeding 20 seconds for the top to be lowered or raised. Also top is not going down all the way as the fabric obscures the mirror when driving.”

NHTSA complaint #10510205, filed 2013-05, 5,000 miles

“Vehicle would not start; repaired and then symptom happened again. Said to be a faulty water bladder designed to remove leaking water from convt top in the trunk area, caused by two buttons on the convertible top missing. Dealer suggested using a car cover to prevent it from happening again. Problem: the design is flawed and there is no notice that something this dangerous could happen. When the electrical parts failed, (entire wire loom was compromised with no warning!) no safety items would work. If vehicle was on major highway, death would probably occur. …”
